SEAT
YOURSELF Next time you’re at a fancy restaurant
you don’t have reservations for, ask the maitre d’ if
there’s a bar area where you can have a few drinks while you
wait for a table to open up. When no one’s looking, sneak
into the dining area and sit down at the table of your choice. If
anyone asks, just say someone seated you there, and that’s
all you know—they won’t cause a spectacle over it.
